We have to use the function A(t)= a(1 +/- r)^t
So A is going to be the answer- the area after 8 years. t is going to be 8, because t is time. a is 2400 because that's the starting value. Finally, we're going to turn 5.75% into it's decimal form of .0575. That's going to be r, and because the area is decreasing, we will subtract r from 1.
Our new function is:
A=2400(1-.0575)^8
Simplify a little bit.
A=2400(.9425)^8
Bring .9425 to to power of 8 and then multiply by 2400 because PEDMAS.
A=1494.38366866
The rounded answer is 1494 kilometers squared.
Answer:
$54.99/person
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide '26 persons' into the total cost $1,429.74: we get $54.99/person.
25 or 5^2 because when you divide two exponents you subtract the exponent parts

Answer: $14,137.30</h3>
Work Shown:
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 21450*(1+(-0.08))^5
A = 21450*(1-0.08)^5
A = 21450*(0.92)^5
A = 21450*0.6590815232
A = 14137.29867264
A = 14,137.30
Notice how I used a negative r value to indicate depreciation rather than growth.
Use all the top to multiply by it
Then divide by the buttom.
